## What is Wordsmith?

Right now, somewhere in the world, thousands of people are staring at exactly the same sixteen letters you are.

Wordsmith runs on one global clock. Every 2.5 minutes a brand-new board goes live, and every player on Earth gets that identical board — same letters, same layout, same two minutes to play it. No matchmaking, no waiting your turn. You open the app and you are already inside the round that is happening.

HOW IT WORKS
• Drag across touching letters — up, down, sideways, diagonally — to trace a word
• Words run from 4 to 10 letters
• Length pays: a 4-letter word scores 3, a 10-letter word scores 57
• Every board hides 30 to 40 findable words, and at least one of them is 9 letters or longer
• Chain finds back to back for NICE, GREAT, AMAZING, ON FIRE, UNSTOPPABLE and LEGENDARY

TWO WAYS TO PLAY
• Classic — a free hunt across the whole board, at full points
• Quest — a 20-target ladder split into five timed stages, from 4-letter words up to 8 and beyond. Fewer points, far more pressure

COMPETE
• A live leaderboard closes out every round while the next board loads
• Global rankings for Today, This Week, This Month, This Year and All Time
• Yesterday's champion — and last week's, last month's and last year's — gets a card on your home screen
• Game Center: 74 achievements and the Best Round Score leaderboard, unlocked as you play

KEEP PROGRESSING
• 144 achievements, from your first four-letter word to a perfect 400-point round
• Levels and XP that climb with every round you finish
• Streaks tracking how many rounds in a row you have stayed above your own bar

LEARN AS YOU GO
Tap any word you found during the round review and read what it actually means. Real dictionary definitions, in your language.

13 LANGUAGES, 13 DICTIONARIES
English, Turkish, German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, Italian, Indonesian, Russian, Polish, Dutch, Ukrainian and Swedish — each with its own native word list, not a translated one.

ALSO IN THE BOX
• Play offline; your scores sync the moment you reconnect
• Start instantly as a guest, sign in with Apple or Google later and keep everything
• Light, dark and system themes, colour palettes and board fonts

WORDSMITH PRO
• Keep playing through the closing seconds of every round
• A live panel showing how many words of each length sit on the board, and how many you have found
• The full emoji avatar set
• Every theme colour, plus a Pro badge beside your name on the leaderboards

The next board goes live in under two and a half minutes. See you in it.
